Wait a minute, where is my master?

Chapter 148: Could Grandpa Actually Be Me?



Chi Dao held the scroll and vanished on the spot.

The next moment,

Jin Xu felt frequent tremors under his feet.

On the path, the fine white sand jumped up and down with the rhythm of the tremors.

It seemed that the Ancestor of the Immortal Palace wasn't holding back this time.

"I don't know why they didn't move farther away to fight."

The Shui Clan Elder stared at the regularly jumping white sand on the ground and muttered somewhat annoyed.

Afterward, she raised her hand and cast a few strands of Spiritual Power into the void, temporarily activating some of the Shui Clan's protective array's prohibitions. Only then did the sensation of tremors beneath everyone's feet disappear.

The white sand on the ground that had been jumping rhythmically now quieted down as well.

"Alright, all of you come with me."

After finishing, Grandma Yu called out to Jin Xu and the others who were looking back at the path they had come from.

A few moments later,

A group of people reached the reception hall.

The Shui Clan Elder casually waved her hand, dismissing the attendants waiting outside the door.

Once everyone was seated,

She took out a transparent crystal box containing the "Strengthening Pill" and placed it on the table next to the little Taoist, speaking seriously.

"I must clarify, these seven 'Strengthening Pills' I suspect might possess two or more types of effects. However, Yaoer should have told you, the method of visualization I learned originally was incomplete, so the pill effects I explain today can only serve as a reference.

"In the future, whether you use them yourself or give them to others, you must consider carefully."

"Thank you, Grandma, for the warning. I will indeed be cautious whenever I use these pills,"

Jin Xu sincerely responded, then with a hint of curiosity, asked,

"May I know how you speculated that these pills might have two or more types of effects?"

Upon hearing this, Grandma Yu's face showed an inexplicable expression.

She remained silent for a moment, then scolded Yaoer, who was hunched over and engrossed in something by her side,

"You're already quite a big fish, yet you can't even sit properly. Straighten up your back!"

Before she had finished speaking, a stream of water materialized out of nowhere, forcibly correcting the Little Fish Demon's sitting posture.

The little Taoist saw this scene, his expression slightly stunned.

Yaoer, however, who had been an innocent victim, blinked her clear eyes and looked innocently at her grandmother.

She was just looking down to check the ingredients in her storage treasure and contemplating what new recipe to cook later.

How had she suddenly been scolded?

"Ahem, alright, let me introduce the effects of this first pill,"

The Shui Clan Elder, after chiding her granddaughter, naturally turned to the little Taoist and said,

Jin Xu nodded and replied with a "Thank you."

However, he understood in his heart.

She didn't want to answer his previous question.

But, was this excuse not a bit too hard on her granddaughter? When the water was correcting Yaoer's posture, he had faintly heard the sound of bones cracking!

The little Taoist was internally crafting his complaint.

Meanwhile, Grandma Yu had already reached out to open the transparent crystal box and carefully lifted one fiery-red pill encased in Spiritual Power.

"This pill, once consumed, can enhance physical strength.

"I can't determine exactly how much it will enhance, but judging from the medicinal fragrance of the pill and the frightful Heavenly Tribulation during its creation, its effect is surely much stronger than Nine Provinces' top strength-enhancing pill—the Nine Dragon Hundred Tiger Pill."

The Shui Clan Elder said, then placed the pill back into the box and reminded the little Taoist

"However, this type of pill typically has certain requirements for the user's cultivation and physique. For instance, anyone in the Body Cultivation below the Void Refinement Realm who takes the Nine Dragon Hundred Tiger Pill dies."

"Oh, and there's a good chance that these pills can cause a person's physique to increase significantly, becoming incredibly robust."

"Of course, all this is from my own experience, so for this pill you have, it's only a reference."

Jin Xu took the words to heart and quietly labeled the red pill as 'big baby' in his mind.

Meanwhile, Grandma Yu had already gently lifted a second, orange pill from the crystal box.

"This pill can enhance one's hearing and eyesight..."

After she finished speaking, she briefly introduced the characteristics of similar pills in the Nine Provinces Realm, providing a reference for the young Taoist.

Then, Grandma Yu was about to fetch the third pill from the crystal box.

But she was stopped by Jin Xu, who looked oddly at her.

"Surely it can't be that these pills are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet and their effects match up, can they?"

"If that's really the case, what if I have someone consume these seven pills…"

"Hiss, could it be that I am actually my own grandfather?"

His mind was exceptionally active at this moment, and Grandma Yu, having been stopped by him, saw that he hadn't spoken yet.

She couldn't help but look puzzled.

"What's wrong, is there something unclear about the effects of the second pill, or is there some other issue?"

"Cough... no,"

The young Taoist coughed lightly, then looked uncertainly at the yellow pill enveloped by spiritual power.

"Let me guess, could this pill make one's body as tough as metal and bronze?"

After saying this, he felt inexplicably a bit nervous for some reason.

However, the Shui Clan Elder, hearing Jin Xu's question, flashed a look of confusion in her eyes.

With an expectant look from him, she gently shook her head.

"Just by smelling the fragrance of this pill, one can sense the immense vitality within it. How could its effect be to turn one's body into metal and bronze?

"I have explored it with the incomplete method of contemplation, and this pill can heal injuries, whether they're physical or on the divine soul. Theoretically, it should be able to cure them all."

After Grandma Yu briefly described the effects of the yellow pill, she put it back into the box.

The young Taoist felt a sense of loss deep inside after hearing this.

It seemed that his idea of reviving a certain 'popular childhood idol group' in the Nine Provinces Realm was not going to happen.

"However, since this thing can heal, then the Great Willow Tree elder..."

With this thought, Jin Xu didn't wait for the Shui Clan Elder to speak again before he quickly asked.

"Grandma, if this pill were to be used on a plant with significant cultivation, could it also completely heal its injuries?"

"...You want to use it to heal the Serenity Willow at the Xuanxu Temple, right?"

Grandma Yu was silent for a moment, her expression becoming somewhat complex as she asked.

Seeing her insight into his purpose, the young Taoist didn't hide it and nodded earnestly.

"Theoretically, it should be possible, but..."

The Shui Clan Elder hesitated in her tone and, saying so, she glanced involuntarily in the direction of Yaoer.

She saw that Yaoer was sitting up straight.

Seeing this, Grandma Yu's gaze then drifted to Little White, who was sitting even straighter than her granddaughter.

With a somewhat helpless sigh, she showed an awkward expression.

"This way, let me first introduce the effects of the remaining few pills to you, then you can decide whether or not you want to save that Serenity Willow."

The Shui Clan Elder said.

She actually lifted all four remaining pills from the crystal box at once.
